I changed the water and a day later the pH shot to 8 and the plants looked like they were drowning. Ended up being root rot. I added a ton of pH down and it wasn't working. Then had to start flushing. Flushed about 3 gallons each. Then nuked it with h2o2 and remixed it all lowering the water level

Ph is the perfect one for soil medium but fairly too high for a hydroponic grow : 5.8 is the sweet spot. Humidity is too low so the air is too "dry" and the plant can be stress. Your day temp is near to the good one to kill a cannabis plant as 10 °C will only lead to a budding "attempt" without something correct to smoke in final so try to find a heater to raise the temps to 10°C higher than actually ( 20°C at least). Check your nutrient schedule : is that normal to give more bloom than veg nitrients while in vegetative stage ?

I'd love to provide correct and concise information to this whole mess. But you have not filled your Diary out correctly, I know it can be tricky to do at first. I mean start with the basics, make sure the air pump is bubbling up the reservoirs, then flush, dump and change and reservoirs. 10 Celsius can't be right. 35% RH doesn't sound right either. Do you have a Temperature and RH measuring device. Umm I hate to just repeat others advice but... growweedeasy.com is a great a place to start.

I added h2o2 about 2 tsp per gallon. 24 hours later added a ton of hydroguard and a gallon of premix. I fixed the pH issues and lowered the water level to around 2 gallons to provide distance between the basket. I snipped off many of the leaves that were blocking new growth. I also raised the lights to get her to stretch a little. I plan to tie down around friday. The roots are doing much better and the plants came back alive and are growing again

Starting to have either P excess or lack of calmag. Added 3 ml of calmag to each bucket and will monitor spots. If it gets worse in 2 days, I'll flush with the nutrients above minus the tiger bloom. I was using a tsp per gallon of tiger bloom to lower ph

Tiny spots of calmag def on front right . A few on back right as well. Added 2ml calmag and h2o. If worse Tomo, flushing and refeeding. Day 8 flower, they ate basically nothing. Flower 24, the center plant started having deficiency. I flushed 4 gallons of water and fed on flower 25. Possibly k def, or calmag. I'm unsure. But I did a heavy feed after a strong flush

It's called a Fasciation and there are a number of factors that can cause this. Usually for small hobby growers it's not a huge concern. If your interested in learning more about your odd looking bud look into Cannabis Fasciation's it is not Polyploid as this is a different thing. Fasciation (pronounced /ˌfæʃiˈeɪʃən/, from the Latin root meaning "band" or "stripe"), also known as cresting, is a relatively rare condition of abnormal growth in vascular plants in which the apical meristem (growing tip), which normally is concentrated around a single point and produces approximately cylindrical tissue, instead becomes elongated perpendicularly to the direction of growth, thus producing flattened, ribbon-like, crested (or "cristate"), or elaborately contorted, tissue. Polyploidy is the state of a cell or organism having more than two paired (homologous) sets of chromosomes. Most species whose cells have nuclei (eukaryotes) are diploid, meaning they have two sets of chromosomes—one set inherited from each parent. However, some organisms are polyploid, and polyploidy is especially common in plants.

Why are my leaves turning colors? I have 5 of the same strain but this one, the leaves are turning almost black. Is this genetics?

Hello.. Hope u are well.. Its most likely genetics as sum pheno of gelato do have nice purple hues.. It cudb a cooler spot in ur grow space so effecting single plant bit more than others.. I noticed in pictures that ur fan leaves have brown and yellow spots wit slightly burnt tips.. This is due to slight over feed.. If its been warm the plants will drink more water than nutrient and leave ec higher than wot u put in.. Simply lower amount of nutrients uve been giving her.. They look great tho and im sure ull get a great yeild of quality buds.. Gud luck n stay safe.. 👍

Super dense bud. Got bud rot on some at the end so lost maybe 3-4 oz that I did not include in the final weight. Used 3 Migro 100 lights. A Bestva 3000 and a Bestva 2000. Harvested in 4 batches so the photos are only a plant at a time

@xanado18,love it. Planning on ordering 3 more after the shutdown ends to make the Migro 600. I have a few bestvas and set one up on 2 seedlings that I'll switch out with the Migro after harvest in 5-6 weeks

I really love your grow and you did such an amazing job. However I personally have seen alot of people that grow ilgm gelato in DWC and every time the plants grow funky in hydroponics IDK why. But well I love organic for cannabis there are a ton of benefits if you do it right. Not that I am a expert by any means. But I love the idea of having living soil. I use mycholrizal fungi and trichoderma bacteria blend from Earth Man's Living Soil Root Love brand. Along with Recharge and Stump Tea and Espoma top amendment Garden Tone which too also has organic bacteria and is Ph balanced for organic soil. So no need to PH anything but the water. Plus I've just added earth worm castings to the mix. Which unbeknownst to me the bag and worm castings contain beneficial carnivorous soil mites. Which if effected they storm your soil and weave tunnels around the root ball and when they reach adulthood they stalk the stalks looking for Thrips and Spider mites and they feed on them like a Tick sucking them dry. It's really neat stuff I thought I would share that with you and my grow if your ever thinking of going organic. Also I wanted to mention the Migro light your using I really like them. I watch his channel and his lights are dialed in true sunlight spectrum. However if you would like a far cheaper and equally effective option. Check out Amazon for deformable led garage lights. They are made of web like cast aluminum. Which dissipate heat just like a real grow light. Some contain up to 5 panels that have over 500 LEDS . Which output 150 watts from the wall to your plants. And if your lucky and just keep searching you can find the most common for around $50. Or you can find new brands like CACAGOO that offer 50% off or more. Trust me you will find these far more effective since each panel is foldable and you can direct the light in multiple directions. As far as spectrum goes they come in cool white or sun like. Which is either a bright white bluish of yellow white light. They even have some that can be manipulated from cool white to warm white light. Which in principle is the difference between, metal halide and HPS. Happy growing.

I just thought I would let you know that you have some inaccurate information provided on one of your lighting systems. Your Migro light is an LED system. It's not a florescent lamp as you have it listed as in your grow. Also, each individual Migro light is not 150W. Each one run individually uses about 115W. That appears to be a Migro 300 system which you should just list as the Migro 300 as opposed to x3 Migro (100). The Migro 300 uses about 350W. Nice results on your grow btw!

Check the air pump and line. They look like they lack oxygen. Perhaps you had a blackout for a few hours?

I’ve been growing under migro 600s it’s a powerful light that’s forsure, I raised it 20+ inches because it was frying my tips, would love to see where you end up setting yours at for optimum growth(I still haven’t dialed it in). Good luck on your grow!!
